City Lights - Emilio Rojas, Tess

City lights, city lights, city lights, we ain’t slowing down

City lights, city lights, ‘cause we live the fast life

City lights, city lights, city lights, yeah we want it now

City lights, city lights, city lights, we ain’t slowing down

City lights, city lights, ‘cause we live the fast life

City lights, city lights, city lights, yeah we want it now

And they make it seem;

the city has everything you can dream

Ain’t living to the limit, we living beyond our means

Maintaining images, anything that you need

Addicted to the spending, nobody gon' intervene

Got to earn that dough then burn that dough then get them newest clothes

In a city where everybody late on paying bills and student loans

We looking fly but we struggling, who would know?

We party every night ‘cause we comforted by the glow baby

We don’t go to bed, spending every minute we awake

Painting that coda red, landlord, everybody owe them bread

But they rather go out and blow they checks

We balling out but falling out on top of sofa beds, broke

With a little bit of dough but they made it stretch just like a yoga bend

We know perception is the key to our successes

But people gonna judge our efforts by the streets and our addresses

We be impressing, living where them rents is high

Come get desensitized by all the crime and gentrify, yeah

I’mma shine bright in the limelight, get that crib with a sky light

When I get my mind right, then my grind gonna make that my life

And that high life, we chasing it, faking it till we making it

I’mma go from living in the basement to making atheists have faith in it

Women that were acting afraid of it will be begging me to let me put they face

in it

And I ain’t ever giving credit when I pay for shit ‘cause I’mma be rich

I won’t pay for shit, yeah, I’mma move you when I’mma make that list of who’s

who

Till I got a room with a pool view, I be in the lights as cool blue
